Offshore oil and gas industry has a strong incentive to improve its traditional operations and move towards more remote controlled and automated installations. This allows for improved efficiency, reduced cost and improved quality, and safety by removing personnel out of harm's way. The use of...

This dataset was collected to understand how Norwegian households responded to the electricity price shock due to the European energy crisis. It consists of consumer characteristics and their self-reported responses to the extraordinarily high electricity prices which were collected with a survey of...

The rapid adoption of Internet-of-Things (IoT) and digital twins (DTs) technologies within industrial environments has highlighted diverse critical issues related to safety and security. Sensor failure is one of the major threats compromising DTs operations. In this paper, for the first time, we...

Modelling of the energy system in the countries surrounding the North Sea is performed with a focus on Norway and offshore wind farms situated in the North Sea. The geographically heterogeneous consumption and production distribution in Norway warrants a disaggregation of the country into separate...

BACKGROUND: Persons with severe intellectual disability (ID) may be non-verbal and unable to communicate pain or distress. Consequently, painful conditions may go undetected, and non-verbal persons with ID may not receive adequate care and treatment. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to explore how...

The power system and markets have become increasingly complex, along with efforts to digitalize the energy sector. Accessing flexibility services, in particular, through digital energy platforms, has enabled communication between multiple entities within the energy system and streamlined flexibility...

Low molecular weight alginate oligosaccharides have been shown to exhibit anti-microbial activity against a range of multi-drug resistant bacteria, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Previous studies suggested that the disruption of calcium (Ca2+)–DNA binding within bacterial biofilms and...

The paper proposes a novel medium-term scheduling model for a hydropower system composed by a pumped storage hydropower plant connected to a traditional hydropower plant subject to three types of environmental constraints; these deal with the maximum water abstraction from the reservoir thought the...

Potential carbon neutrality of the global trucking, shipping and aviation sectors by 2050 could be achieved by substituting fossil fuels with renewable hydrogen and synthetic fuels. To investigate the economic impact of fuel substitution over time, a holistic cost model is developed and applied to...

In this work, a membrane separation process is designed and optimized to purify dark fermentative biohydrogen by removing CO₂. A CO₂-selective PVAm-based nanocomposite membrane was selected considering its high CO₂/H₂ separation performance and unique features suitable for the process. We tested the...

This study investigates the thermodynamic and mechanical properties of two common calcium silicate phases, xonotlite (Ca6Si6O17(OH)2) and wollastonite (CaSiO3), in high temperature geothermal well cement using first-principles methods. Various properties, including thermal expansion coefficients...
